NEW OPPORTUNITIES

INTERNATIONAL JURIED EXHIBITION

DEADLINE: OCTOBER 14, 2014

Crossing Art is seeking submissions for “The View Over Here,” a juried exhibition which will be on view from November 14 to December 13, 2014. The exhibition seeks to view aesthetic expression through an international lens, highlighting the interactions of nationalities, and expounding upon the use of art as a way of expressing one’s origins. A portion of the funds raised at the event, including a percentage of the proceeds from the sale of artwork during the opening reception will go toward the Queens Library: The International Commons (QLIC). This new borough-wide initiative will expand the Library’s award winning programs and services for new Americans and promote cultural activities that celebrate the rich cultural heritage of all Queens residents. Crossing Art and the Queens Library both believe that art can serve as a cultural unifier, and that building upon this common ground can heal wounded or distant relationships, and also promote new affiliations and stronger communities.

Crossing Art is looking for Artists & Designers who are interested in participating in Queens Crossing's 2014 Christmas Public Art Project! This is an annual project that brings art and holiday cheer to Flushing, Queens. If you have a large scale installation that you would like to see realized, please submit a proposal with a couple of sentences outlining the scope of the project, along with your CV and budget to info@crossingart.com.
